If I found out, Emma was going into the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair.
He continue:
...Violates the sanctity of our marriage. What else is she keeping from me? What else has she been lying about? Why would she do that and then vote Harris? Why would she say she was voting Trump, and I caught her, and then she said I lied to you for the last four years?
